At a conference at the Gordon Academic College in Haifa Labor chairman Avi Gabbay said that "AIPAC is a very important organization and we agree with their protest against Netanyahu's move to bring the racist Kahanists into the Knesset."
"Last year I went to the AIPAC conference in Washington and spoke to 18,000 people when I spoke of the commitment of the Labor Party to the two-state vision,
but this year the conference will be held very close to the elections being held in Israel. Other MKs, MK Stav Shafir, and MK Merav Michaeli, will represent the party at the conference. and we will be here to continue to present to the Israeli public the way and values of the Labor Party. "
